Restoring power

NGCP workers have completed and energized the two special towers of the Ubay-C.P. Garcia 138kV Line toppled by typhoon “Odette.” A temporary by-pass line was constructed to restore the interconnection of Bohol to Leyte, six days ahead of schedule. The permanent restoration of these towers is ongoing using a new tower design with a higher wind rating to increase its ability to withstand stronger typhoons. These new and sturdier towers are targeted to be completed by April 2022.
